anyone find a knockoff of the Otterbox Defender? i have the extended battery, and i'd like to mod the case to fit it but i don't want to spend $40 for the original.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Go to www.case-parts.com (the same TVC Mall under a different name), and type in "otterbox" ;) They have 1:1 Defender knock off (under Denfender name) in all 3 colors, just scroll down. They also have Commuter cases in various colors, but not for Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Double0EK:
Thanks for the link. Bookmarked..

But how's the quality of the products?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] slipmagt:
Thats a great site, I bought that same case in the OP and a few other things. Awesome prices.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
We have another thread going on about these knock off cases; 2 of the guys already got it and commented about Survivor case only:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38495691&postcount=48

I'm supposed to be getting both Survivor and Defender knock offs either today or on Monday. Since I have original Survivor for iPod touch, and had Defender (prior to returning it back), I will do a more detailed review/comparison with my comments soon. Stay tuned!

But in general, don't expect a great quality of material for something that costs small fraction of the price. I'm not saying that Otterbox and Griffin cases actually cost a lot more for them to manufacture since it made in China anyway. It's just that hose companies have a huge overhead and charge a huge premium whenever new case is released. I just saw original Otterbox Defender on Amazon for $35, down from their MSRP of $60 (still, how much they charge for it at Verizon store).

The reason why I'm personally excited to receive and to review these two cases because original Otterbox Defender had issues with its screen protector and I'm curious if knock off actually fixed it i:) Furthermore, Griffin never even released Survivor for Note 2.

Hi,

Take a look here, there is an "How to" and a collection of navbar icons: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2005937

Also some roms like AOKP or AOKP based roms allow you to change the icons, it's built in the rom in the settings, you just need to put your nav bar icons on your "SD Card"...

Hi,

And it's this that I've posted... :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] tctanalot:
Hi there.

I'm new to the forum but have lurked and used some of the great information and tools that are available here.

So firstly, thank you.

Now.

I bought my One X in China (Where I live), in around August. It seems as though the one I got isn't a regular One X and because of that I'm having some problems.

A month and a half or so ago I installed an AOKP Rom which I've had some pretty intense bugs with, such as the the phone restarting whenever I toggle WiFi on or off. Because of that, I finally attempted to return to stock today. After a while, I found some success. I restored my nandroid backup, reflashed the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader. Happy that I was back to normal, I went to download the Jelly Bean OTA update, but kept having errors when doing so. (The green bar would reach about 1/3 of the way and then a red triangle showed up.) I've tried to troubleshoot and in doing so have found out that my CID is "11111111", so I have no idea what to make of it. All i could find was that this is some kind of superCID, but if it's preventing me from installing an OTA update then how do I go around this?

Is it possible to change my CID to something more accessible? This is the international Tegra 3 model by the way.

Additionally, the HBOOT screen shows that my phone is "ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-OFF RL". Is this normal?

Any answers would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.

:)
[HTC One X] pandaball:
You're really lucky actually, because a lot of people want exactly your phone - SuperCID and S-OFF. You cannot flash OTAs on a SuperCID phone iirc, but you can unlock the bootloader and flash something else
[HTC One X] herbie13:
Hi, there are fastboot commands to change your cid if you are s-off but I am not sure why you would want to.

With s-off you can just go and flash the 1.39 hboot from mikes thread (link from his arhd thread OP)

I have same setup as you and have been wondering what actually is stock for me if I ever needed it. I don't have a nandroid from when I got the phone and I guess that s-off and super cid means I could pick any one ? But which.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] tctanalot:
Thanks for the replies. I guess i have a better understanding now of what these things all mean.

So I gather if I want to get the stock Jellybean ROM I have to flash it myself?

Eh, that's kind of a pain but I guess it's not too bad. Do I go about it in the same way that anyone else would or will there be a variation based on the situation of my phone?

Thanks
[HTC One X] herbie13:
I reckon someone with an s-on would gladly swop with you if its a pain :) you have the most flexibility as it is.

Flash whichever update you like without worrying about the cid matching. That's the magic of super cid. Then because you are s-off you also have the option to downgrade if that ever took your fancy.

There are many guides on how to do this written far better than I could so just search the forum.

Enjoy

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] tctanalot:
I see.

I've had a look around and I'm still a little confused to be honest.

Because I'm S-Off and have SuperCID, does that mean I can just choose a Jellybean OTA Update, download it, install it and upgrade the HBOOT?

Everything will be the same as if I upgraded OTA?

Sorry for being so useless.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Don't hang me for this info, see it more as a pointer to more info to search on ;)

What i have read before is that you can write yourself a CID and update the hboot with a firmware from that CID. then you can run any software out there......

Do not run a ruu, it might mess up your s-off to s-on
[HTC One X] herbie13:
When I get to my pc I will write up what I did with a link.

I did as Mr Hofs said but I did not need to change my cid from super to do it.

I have never tried an ruu.

[HTC One X] herbie13:
Ok so first i read this and watched his youtube vid http://www.flow-wolf.net/2012/10/htc-one-x-perfect-guide-for-beginners.html

Check video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQasxRPopSM he works with an S-Off

I started on HBoot 1.12 i believe

Then I got my unlock token handy (one from htcdev) and made sure fastboot working etc

Then did a nandroid (which i subsequently deleted but hey i tried to do the right thing :o)

Then I got the latest firmware for HBoot 1.39 from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 I downloaded the first 1.39 for WWE (x.xx.401.x - World Wide English (WWE))

No need to change your CID. Super CID works with any of them.

Now I just followed the usual steps explained many times here to flash the firmware.

You need to put the stock recovery back on. I got mine from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1546970&highlight=htc+one+x+*stock* EDIT: dont think you need this step actually -will let one of the pro's confirm.

Then relock bootloader and reboot in RUU and flash the firmware.

When done unlock bootloader again, flash custom recovery and flash a ROM. You can skip the extra step of flashing the boot.img as with S-Off your custom recovery can do it.

As mentioned by Mr Hofs I have no idea what an RUU would do to S-Off, Ive never tried.

Good luck.

(BTW the original .odex files would be good as well but are not needed)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
If you get no other help, another option is to make a full nandroid backup of your current ROM, and then do a factory install of 4.2.1. Once there, pull the files you need and then restore (using the android backup) back to your customized ROM for patching.

Even though Google has pulled the 4.2.1 factory images, oldblue910 (OP of the OTA thread) has them all available on his site - select the nakasi/nakasig links on the rhs of the page based on the device you have.

good luck

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mizius:
Looking for a lock replacement that does the following:

- Randomly picks pictures from a user specified directory (including external SD) and displays a different one every time the screen turns on

- Once the screen is on allows to flip through the pictures on the locked screen by swiping right/left

- Does that only on the lock screen, not the other screens

I found one that comes close but not quite. The Active Screen Lock has a Personal Gallery plugin that kind of does what I'm looking for except that:

- it does not allow to point to a directory, each picture has to be preloaded via the plugin settings from a default area

- it has a limit of about 20 pictures, and I'd like to have hundreds

Thanks for any advice!

Is anyone having signal issues with 4.2.2? I had a samsung skyrocket before this galaxy nexus and my signal was always good like -85dbm with this nexus in the same location I get -103 and no signal at all. If anyone can help with this please pm me. I'd be willing to shoot you a couple bucks thru paypal for the help. The phone does this all over the place, in the house and even outside and it is causing me some major battery drain.

I check cell stand bye in the battery settings and it shows 32% with no signal with the phone being on for 7 hours. I am missing all kinds of texts and calls, texts going thru very slowly sometimes not at all. I like the stock rom but if I have to go with something else I will. The phone is unlocked rooted with CWM and is being used on t mobile.

I understand this thread is for the Galaxy Nexus, but the update caused a similar issue with my Nexus 4.

I live in a place that doesnt have the greatest signal, yet the phone worked perfectly before I updated to 4.2.2. I would always get around -90db and never had calls cutout.
